Home Inn & Suites partners for Bredenbury event

Disc golfers have an expanded tournament to look forward to this June.

The Home Inn & Suites Open will be held at Bredenbury Saturday, June 24.

“Bredenbury has one of the most interesting courses in the region utilizing what was once the school grounds,” said Trevor Lyons, Tournament Chair with the Parkland Association of Disc Golf. “It’s a challenging 12-tonal course and we are looking forward to a very successful tournament in June, and having Home Inn & Suites Yorkton involved will certainly help us achieve that.”

Lyons said the sponsorship will be used to enhance the event including growing the prize pool.

Kim Varga, course representative with the PADG, and the Town of Bredenbury, said she is looking forward to growing disc golf in the community through sponsorships like the one with Home Inn & Suites.

“We are of course proud of our course. We see it as a real asset in terms of recreation for our community,” she said.

“And the annual tournament builds profile for disc golf, and brings visitors to Bredenbury to play, so it’s a huge thing, and we are excited to have Home Inn & Suites involved with us.”

John Allen, Marketing Manager, with Home Inn & Suites said it was something they felt was good to become involved in.

“Disc golf is certainly gaining popularity, and when approached about being involved taking on the sponsorship at Bredenbury was a good fit,” he said. “Home Inn & Suites certainly services the area around Yorkton, and we saw this as a good way of giving back while supporting an activity that is a great way to get outside, be active, and have fun.”

As added incentive the top finishers among PADG members participating at tournaments, including the one in Bredenbury will be invited to partake in the Farrell Agencies Champions’ Challenge to be held Oct. 15.
